* In ''[[Tsukihime]]'', this is the weapon of choice for Shiki's father Nanaya Kiri according to one of the Kagetsu Tohya side stories. He knows it's not really an assassin's weapon, but he likes it. Plus, he's such a [[Badass Normal|badass]] that it doesn't really matter what he fights with. |

It's not nearly as noteworthy as Mjolnir, to speak nothing of the other artifacts, but it might find a niche use for stat-boost strategies or quest-faring Barbarians. |
